Available Cargo Van Types

Here are some possible variations of Cargo Van rentals in Boston

Box Van

Box vans are very popular for businesses that need a high capacity load area, such as home removal companies or couriers. These vans are named after their box-shaped load area that is separate from the driver’s cab. As a result, the load space is higher off the ground than some other cargo van options, but the additional space makes this a very popular cargo van rental option.

Luton Van

Though a Luton van is very similar to the previously described box van, its box body differs because it expands over the cab and uses a cargo barrier to separate the cargo from the driver and passenger. Because the Luton van box body expands over the cab, this van has an even higher capacity cargo area than the box van, making it a very popular rental choice for high-capacity load jobs.

Chassis Van

A chassis cargo van is a type of cargo van that is often made with the intention of it being converted into another type of van, such as a box van. As a result, your business needs may not require you to rent a chassis van in its base form, but this cargo van is a great rental option if you have your own cargo box or if you need a specific type of cargo van, such as an ice-cream van.

Panel Van

Panel vans are smaller than the average cargo van and that is because they are derived from passenger cars. These vans still offer a great small- to medium-capacity load area, but due to their size, they get better gas mileage and are easier to maneuver around narrow streets and tight parking or loading areas.

Van Brands

Nissan

Nissan has two signature models of commercial cargo vans, the Nissan NV500, which is one of the biggest commercial vehicles of its kind, and the Nissan NV200, which is a smaller panel van vehicle with a low floor for easy loading. Nissan is known as one of the more reliable manufacturers, and they do not disappoint with the options they offer for the comfort of their drivers and the safety features they load into their vehicles.

Ford

Ford is known for making cargo van models that get some of the best gas mileage, and that generally have the highest payload capacity in their vans. Additionally, having been founded in 1903, Ford is one of the oldest and most experienced car manufacturers for both personal and commercial vehicles in America, making them a great option for cargo van rentals.

Freightliner

Cargo Van Uses

The van rented on COOP can be used for any of your business needs. Here are some examples of the types of uses for Cargo Vans rented on COOP.

Delivery Services

Due to their fuel efficiency and maneuverable size, cargo vans are a popular choice for many delivery couriers. Many large delivery and logistics companies, such as Amazon, rely upon cargo vans in their fleet to help them execute their operations in a timely and cost-efficient manner.

Contractors

Plumbers, electricians, and HVAC professionals often use cargo vans to transport their equipment between jobs. These vehicles provide the space they need while not being so large that it prohibits them from entering tight and narrow residential areas that their job sites may be located in.

Flower Delivery

Many local florists will offer flower delivery services, but since the volume of deliveries can vary, it may not make sense for these florists to own and maintain a commercial vehicle. That’s one of the reasons why flower delivery is a popular use of cargo vans rented with COOP. Regardless of whether these deliveries range from multiple stops with small orders throughout the day, or involve a large order for one location, the cargo van is able to meet the needs of flower delivery businesses.
